Today week we are going to concentrate on Multiplication of Fractions K27 & Chance T4 & T5
You may need a pen and paper here.
Please NOTE: You need to simplify your answers or they will be marked wrong. Also you NEED to a have a space between the whole numbers and the fractions.
K.27 Multiply fractions by whole numbers
We have done these before - so this is just a reminder.
Example
¼ X 8
8= 8/1
So it’s ¼ x 8/1
We multiply top by top - bottom by bottom
¼ x 8/1 = 8/4
We cannot leave it as an improper fraction.
8 divided by 4 = 2
Answer: ¼ x 8 = 2
T.4 Understanding probability
T.5 Find the probability
Again please try and spend at least 30 minutes a day on these. Try and get a SMART Score of 100 out of 100 ...or as near as you can to it!
